Editing main namespaces/articles should be a requested permission. This would adress both the issue your outlining here and people misplacing blog content on main namespace pages.

You might be concerned that the influx of people requesting edits might be difficult to contol: but ---

I am currently ranked #40 out of EVERY user on the wiki for contributions, WITHOUT a lucky/roaming edit badge. The rank should be gained after reading guidelines, ect - making the flow even smaller.
